Bruce Ryan with the second Casurina cunninghamiana (She Oak) in the Endemic Trees Area. September 2014.

This is the first swamp cypress which was planted in 2007 the reason I have included it is that this area was almost immediatly inundated with a foot to 18" of water and has remained so since. The tree is still alive and growing in the water.

These three English oaks (Quercus Fastigata) were planted in memory of Benedict Ingram-Morgan, Peter Ingram and for Trish Morgan planted in September 2015 by Trish Morgan, Mike Morgan Mark Watchorn and Bruce Ryan
